My point was fore grip belongs on a tactical run and gun ar usually not one shooting out to further distances.it's an identity crisis like a glock with a bipod.

i want so many guns.. for no reason...that i don’t have any need for

that is all, i’ve had a few cocktails tonight...

Yeah it's a sickness and can span multiple things. Cars, watches, guns, booze whatever

Does anyone conceal carry a Springfield XD MOD2 (3.3")? I got one and I do not like my IWB holster. Looking for some recommendations.

what is you iwb?

in my experience the most comfortable iwb is crossbreed, alien gear is about 80% of the comfort for less money, and i have tried them, but i keep coming back to crossbreed

i carry a 1911 commander almost always in mine

[1MOREMOD]

I have an xdm and a milt sparks versamax2 iwb. That ive carried that way exactly never. issue is that compared to my 1911 these types of stRiker fire guns feel like a brick. It's the thickness that is the issue being 1.25 thick instead of say .9 for a 1911.

I went with this, because I got my XD when it first came out. It was the only canted one I could find.

Is your 1911 single stack? I use to carry single stack but hated carry an extra magazine. I just did not feel confortable carrying with a single magazine with 6+1 in the chamber. Just not enough rounds.

[1MOREMOD]

Standard 1911 is 7+1 and I carry wilson combat 8 +1 mag in single stack sa PRO, along with usually 1 extra 8 in a snag mag in left front pocket. If wearing coat or some of my pants have extra pocket will carry 2-3 spares.

[Eternal]

I usually carry with the standard mag (13+1) but sometimes will cary with the extended (16+1). Just hate carrying extra

[1MOREMOD]

Yeah the whole thing is a pain but you evolve your gear and set up to meet your needs over time.

lol, I know the feeling.

My personal plan is to sell some guns to upgrade my collection. For instance, I have a MAC-11 that has no purpose at all; anything it can do, my Glock can do better. It's only value (if you want to call it that) is the Hollywood factor, because lord knows it ain't worth a shit for actual shooting. And I have a major itch for the Mossberg Shockwave... but I already have a Mossberg Persuader as well as a tacticooled Remington 870.

If I sell the Persuader, I can justify to myself getting the Shockwave to replace it


And I have multiple ARs, but I want one in a ludicrous caliber I don't need like .458 SOCOM.

[1MOREMOD]

Those shockwave and tac 14 or whatever are an oddity and just a fad also. I have an 870 set up for tactical work and resist getting the small version or any of those mag fed monstrosities.

Aw c'mon. Everyone needs a Shockwave! They're fun!

[1MOREMOD]

Nah I'll take my 870. Ghost rings, light mount, sling, non mim extractor, vang follower and safety. I've put slugs on target at 100 yards.

#metoo

i’ve had a .458 upper in my ‘cart’ a few time, i have absolutely no use for it, and now without online ammo sales, i probably couldn’t feed it

[1MOREMOD]

I haven't had that desire 556 will bring a lot of hurt if needed. But I do want a barret 50

[Nuckle]

I took my first deer with my .458 a couple weeks ago. I am very satisfied with its performance. With the right build it is highly accurate out to 200yrds and delivers one hell of a punch with Barnes TacX bullets.

Today I finally made time to break in the new rifle up at Cherry Ridge range in north Jersey. I followed JP's recommended break in procedure for the barrel (solvent-JB Compound-light solvent @ 10, 30, 50, and 70 rounds) while I adjusted the gas block and temporary sights. Shot without a hiccup once I set the gas. Super smooth action, and shoots really flat with the Federal 55g .223 I was using. Love the Elf trigger... Definitely filling the bill as my range gun. Looking forward to tearing it down and making sure everything is still tight and working correctly.

[David 12]

Just got her cleaned up and need to get to the range. But I just picked up a Walther Q5 Match with a Vortex Venom 6 moa red dot. Trigger, grip and act feel good! Thanks for the earlier words of advice.

After reading reviews on cheap drop-ins, I keep coming back to the Elf but can't decide on flat or curved. Wish their curved trigger wasn't so pronounced; would make it the best of both worlds.

How's the repeatability/consistency when it comes to landing the pad of your finger on the "natural" rest of the trigger itself?
